| Abstract Scope |
Higher dimension experiments have the promise to hasten many fields in materials science, particularly those involving irradiation due to their inherent cost, danger, and difficulty. Optimizing a material’s property response to irradiation, or even simply studying it, too often requires either huge experimental efforts or sparse matrices of experimental parameters. In this talk, we review emerging ways in which picosecond ultrasonic inference of material properties of interest can reduce the dimensionality of irradiation materials experiments. Examples ranging from in situ deduction of radiation response kinetics for structural material lifetime studies, to quickly searching ternary and higher-order compositional systems for radiation robustness, to helping determine which defects may be responsible for recently observed, irradiation-enhanced superconductivity. The common links between these studies are the use of picosecond ultrasound to infer properties or defects of interest, as well as orders of magnitude faster experimentation when using these inference models. |
